I enjoyed my stay for the most part. the location is simply fabulous, right by Playa Panama with its beautiful scenery. However, the resort is showing its age and has some maintenance issues that need addressing. My suite was spacious and generally comfortable, but I did notice some inconsistencies in available amenities. For the price, I felt I got a decent experience, but there's definitely room for improvement.

I stayed at Vista Bahia Beach Resort and enjoyed its fabulous beach location. The resort, however, shows signs of wear, and while my suite was spacious and comfortable, the amenities were inconsistent. Service was hit or miss, and the pool had issues during my visit. Overall, I had a good time but had to adjust my expectations.

The resort is ideally located next to a beautiful beach with brown, very wet sand, surrounded by dry forest. I enjoyed the proximity to a public beach and appreciated the peaceful environment and wildlife on the hotel.

While some friends enjoyed the food, my experience with the nachos wasn't great, so I chose not to explore the dining options further. It seemed basic, and I had hot dogs instead.

I had a mixed experience at Vista Bahia Beach Resort. The location is absolutely stunning, with Playa Panama nearby and a beautiful view from my suite. However, the hotel itself is showing signs of aging, and there were issues with the pool and inconsistent amenities in the suite. The service could use improvement, as I often had to seek out information rather than finding it readily available.

My stay at Vista Bahia Beach Resort was a mix of highs and lows. The location is fabulous, right on Playa Panama, which has a beautiful beach. However, it's clear that the resort has seen better days, with some facilities falling apart or in disrepair. The large suites were comfortable, though availability of kitchen equipment and towels was inconsistent.

I had a decent stay at Vista Bahia Beach Resort, but it didn't quite meet my expectations. The location was fabulous, right on Playa Panama, and my suite was large and comfortable. However, I noticed the resort is showing its age, with inconsistent amenities in the suites and a cloudy pool that closed during my visit. Overall, if you go in with low expectations and appreciate the stunning view and wildlife, you might enjoy your time here.
